The location is the very cool Experimental Sound Studio, an art space and recording studio in Ravenswood Chicago. The space is fun, full of music, and you can check it out at the link below. Parking is available on the street around the studio. If you are coming from downtown, there is multiple bus and metra options to get you a short walk away from the studio. We hope to see you there!

Please RSVP here if you are coming, and with what gear (if any) you’d like to bring.

3 years into this hobby and I've never been to a meet, maybe I'll actually be able to make this one. I always seem to get called into work on the Saturday meetings, but that shouldn't happen on a Sunday.

Thank you to everyone for putting this together. My wife and I enjoyed hearing the 2 channel set-up (Bifrost Multibit>Freya>Vidar) and various headphones on the Bifrost Multibit/Asgard II stack. Everyone was quite friendly and the atmosphere was relaxed. I got a chance to listen to the ZMF Eikon again and it only confirmed my desire to acquire these eventually.

This was a great meet, good vibes, and a big thanks to Schiit for sponsoring everything and sending gear, ifi for sending some awesome kit, Zach from ZMF for bringing some goodies (and a phenomenal sounding "coming soon" headphone) ESS for hosting us (check out their free concerts!)
And of course all of the folks who came!

ALSO: If anyone who lives in Chicago proper ever wants to hangout and listen to stuff in a non-meet setting, I would be down to do that. I have a decent Stax rig and a decent TT setup too. I'm always down to hang out and drink some beers and listen to music and talk about audio stuff.

I'd be interested in a meet this summer some time. I could bring ZMF Atticus, modded Musical Paradise MP301, and diy planet10hifi Mark Audio 10p speakers. I'd like to hear a Kenzie Encore, Mogwai SE, ZDS, and/or Decware CSP3 if anyone has any of these.

Edit: could also bring along a Modi Multibit, though I suspect there are plenty floating around

Hey All, if there’s interest in another Chicago meet, I can probably get Schiit and ZMF to make an appearance again, as well as gettig a few other manufacs to bring/send gear. The Recording studio was cool last time - Any ideas/opinions on spaces and I can start taking a look again. I’ll chat with Schiit about it soon.
